OUR<br />

MISSION<br />

The mission of<br />

Georgia-Cumberland<br />

Academy is to foster an<br />

educational environment<br />

of excellence where<br />

students, faculty and staff<br />

pursue a shared quest:<br />

TO KNOW<br />

Jesus as Savior<br />

and Friend<br />

TO LOVE<br />

God and those He<br />

brings into our lives<br />

TO SERVE<br />

the church and society<br />

MULTIPLE GIFTS HELP<br />

CONTINUE THE MISSION<br />

GREG GERARD<br />

PRINCIPAL<br />

From the Principal<br />

The pictures that were<br />

produced by the architectural<br />

firm we hired are beautiful. The<br />

drawings of the new gymnasium<br />

and cafeteria building were<br />

striking to us when we first saw<br />

them. When we have shown<br />

these pictures to people it is not<br />

uncommon that people would<br />

react by saying something that<br />

often included the word “wow!”<br />

Now we can walk around and<br />

inside the emerging structure. The<br />

same word often escapes the lips of whoever is seeing our new facility for<br />

the first time. It is an amazing process to see this new structure emerge from<br />

the ground. And it is sometimes hard to believe that it is actually happening.<br />

That same feeling of amazement at God’s incredible blessings extends<br />

to the realization that many people have banded together to give the<br />

money needed to bring these new facilities to <strong>GCA</strong>. I well remember the<br />

first time I looked at the beautiful depictions of new gymnasium, cafeteria,<br />

student center, classrooms and entrance. I loved the images – at the same<br />

time I silently thought, “How in the world will we ever come up with the<br />

money for all of that?” Well, the answer was far outside of this world. God<br />

was moving on the hearts of many people to make it happen, and we have<br />

been blessed beyond my wildest dreams!<br />

We are still looking for the additional resources to fully pay the bills<br />

on these projects. To our frustration, costs have gone up due to unforeseen<br />

challenges and cost increases. But funding has continued to be committed to<br />

help meet those increases. Through it all, God has poured down his blessings<br />

to bring over $11.7 million to <strong>GCA</strong> for this project, so I have no doubt He<br />

will close the final gap. God may even be calling you to be a part of His<br />

amazing multiplication of gifts that is now taking place at <strong>GCA</strong>.<br />

We praise God for what He has done and what He has promised to do<br />

as He moves people to invest in this important ministry. What a privilege<br />

to partner with Him to build for the future of <strong>GCA</strong> and participate in<br />

Continuing the Mission to impact lives for eternity.<br />

THE MULTIPLICITY OF ENDOWMENTS<br />

From The <strong>GCA</strong> Board<br />

Jesus taught us, as recorded by His disciple Matthew, in chapter 18, verses<br />

3-5: “Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will<br />

never enter the kingdom of heaven. Therefore, whoever takes the lowly position of<br />

this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. And whoever welcomes one<br />

such child in my name welcomes me.”<br />

Scripture makes it clear that our Lord values youth and urges us to become<br />

like them, but do we really value children as He did?<br />

Obviously Georgia-Cumberland Academy values youth as demonstrated<br />

by its stated mission and vision, but recently the school showed an even clearer<br />

commitment by partnering with the Georgia-Cumberland Conference to establish<br />

an endowment fund that values youth with assistance for those in financial need.<br />

Since its inception in 2012 the <strong>GCA</strong> Worthy Student Endowment has grown<br />

from $5,000,000 to a balance of $5,268,027 while paying out $910,000 to worthy<br />

students along the way! This fund is not only growing but benefiting children<br />

while doing so.<br />

To top it off, this resource came along just as other funds were going away.<br />

Once again, as He typically does, God shows His true character by providing for those He values.<br />

KEVIN KOSSICK<br />

VICE PRESIDENT OF EDUCATION,<br />

GEORGIA CUMBERLAND<br />

Do you value children as He does? You can demonstrate what you value by providing financial assistance to <strong>GCA</strong> through<br />

the endowment fund while having confidence that the Lord will lead a child in need to <strong>GCA</strong> who will be blessed by your gift<br />

and the life changing blessing of a Christian education.<br />

A LOOK BACK AT <strong>GCA</strong> FINANCES<br />

From the Treasurer<br />

There are many things that make up a strong school: staff, students, buildings,<br />

academics, and programs. Supporting all of those is a solid financial base. I am<br />

grateful to God to report to you that <strong>GCA</strong> continues to thrive and grow and has<br />

a healthy financial picture. We have clean audits and operate in the black, having<br />

set aside enough working capital to be able to function normally for at least five<br />

months should we have an unexpected emergency. There is never a question<br />

about <strong>GCA</strong> having to close its doors.<br />

While there are many reasons for our healthy status, five immediately come<br />

to mind:<br />

1. Enrollment – for many years, our enrollment has met or exceeded what<br />

we have budgeted.<br />

2. Collections – we have a 99% collection rate, which can sometimes be a<br />

challenging task, but it is vital to the health of our school.<br />

3. Conference and union subsidies contribute significantly to our bottom<br />

line. Many people think that our budget is based totally on the tuition<br />

we receive. You may be interested to know that our tuition fees only pay<br />

for 69% of what we need to accomplish our work.<br />

4. Donations, large and small, positively impact our ability to provide tuition<br />

assistance and program enrichment. In addition, donor contributions<br />

have made it possible for us to expand current facilities and build new<br />

ones.<br />

Deborah Theus<br />

<strong>GCA</strong> Treasurer<br />

5. Realistic budget – we work hard to stay within the budget that has been established and approved by the school<br />

finance committee and school board.<br />

For the above reasons, and others that contribute to our positive financial status, we give all the glory to God. Thank<br />

you for praying that God will continue to bless <strong>GCA</strong>.<br />

My name is Kaiden Coker and I am a<br />

sophomore at <strong>GCA</strong>. Through my time<br />

at <strong>GCA</strong> I have become a better person<br />

spiritually and academically. Without the<br />

people who donated to keep me here at<br />

this school I would probably not be able<br />

to stay. I just want to thank the donors<br />

who helped me and my family get through<br />

these years. I majorly appreciate the<br />

generosity that has kept me here.<br />

The best memories in my life have<br />

been made here, and I still have<br />

two more years to go!<br />

Thank you so much for your generosity! You have made a major<br />

impact on my life, especially my spiritual life. The amazing<br />

opportunities <strong>GCA</strong> has for me here will help me thrive into the Godloving<br />

person I want to be. I would not be at <strong>GCA</strong> if it was not God’s<br />

plan. There were some factors that made my coming to <strong>GCA</strong> an iffy<br />

situation for my parents. The decision was hard on them, but it was<br />

clear that this was God’s plan when we were told that the amount we<br />

were unable to pay had been paid by someone else. Thank you so<br />

very much for helping me find my path to God and the right way of life.<br />

I adore everything about <strong>GCA</strong>, my wonderful friends, the incredible<br />

teachers and deans, and my amazing bosses. I also adore the clubs<br />

and classes I am in. My non-academic classes I attend are praise<br />

band and the newspaper, and soon I will be joining band as well. I am<br />

super excited to get involved here. I have already done a sermon for<br />

vespers, and done a chapel talk, so I am definitely getting involved<br />

and being proactive. All of this is only happening because God<br />

touched you to donate your money to give me the chance to<br />

attend this school. I am so unbelievably appreciative and<br />

touched that anyone would do this for me.<br />

GIVING LEVELS<br />

I would like to thank you personally for your generous<br />

donations that enable students, such as myself, to attend<br />

<strong>GCA</strong>. Because of your support I have been able to take full<br />

advantage of the opportunities given here. It is by God’s grace<br />

that I am currently involved in gymnastics, soccer, praise<br />

band, and band while maintaining a 3.8 GPA. As I’m sure you<br />

know, God provides many avenues of success for us, His<br />

children, as we submit ourselves wholly to Him. 1 Peter 5:6,7<br />

says “Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of<br />

God, that he may exalt you in due time: Casting all your care<br />

upon him; for he careth for you” (KJV). In other words, this is<br />

my key to success. I don’t worry about my financial issues or<br />

my packed schedule because I know that God is in control of it<br />

all. He takes care of His children. God knew that some would<br />

need financial support, so He provided you with the means<br />

to aid me and many others to attend <strong>GCA</strong>. By your faithful<br />

actions, He is sure to bless you in return. Thank you for<br />

allowing God to use you to provide for the needs of others.<br />

Sincerely, Calvin Scott<br />

Impossible! Ludicrous! Out of the question! When some people face completely improbable<br />

situations they give up. Not Shirley Johnston.<br />

In 1999 when the oldest of her four children was finishing the 8th grade and preparing for<br />

academy there was no question of where Jessica wanted to go to school. But as a single<br />

mother, struggling to make ends meet, Shirley didn’t know how it could ever happen. The longrange<br />

plan from the beginning was for all four children to enroll at <strong>GCA</strong>. That summer Shirley<br />

went to the Lord about her needs, packed Jessica up with everything she needed to move into<br />

the dorm, and drove to Calhoun, Ga. Three years later, she enrolled Meagan. A year after that<br />

she brought Eric. Four years later, her youngest son, Joshua, moved into the dormitory at <strong>GCA</strong>.<br />

In 2011 when Josh graduated <strong>GCA</strong>, Shirley shared her incredulous testimony of how God faithfully<br />

provided a way for her four children to complete their education. It was a miraculous mingling of<br />

hard work on the part of Shirley and her children, a blessed blueberry patch that generated income,<br />

generous donors whose combined gifts made up the difference, and a mom whose faith never waivered.<br />

Talk about God’s miraculous multiplication methods!<br />

Cancer took this champion of faith in 2014 and she now rests, awaiting God’s call on that great day when the<br />

universe is witness to God’s final act of faithfulness and mercy. Her children, now grown, will someday share<br />

stories of their mother’s answered prayers and God’s faithfulness with their own children.<br />

At the beginning of 2013, the praise music program<br />

organized a Friday evening concert at the outdoor<br />

amphitheater. Hearts and voices were raised<br />

in praise to God and the presence of His<br />

Spirit was evident. Students, not<br />

wanting that night to end, joined<br />

hands around a campfire<br />

and continued singing<br />

together.<br />

Following that spiritually high<br />

evening, parents discovered that the<br />

sound system used was crudely put<br />

together with a great deal of effort<br />

and ingenuity. It would be difficult to<br />

have another outdoor concert using<br />

the same equipment. During the<br />

parents’ weekend brunch an appeal<br />

In March of 20<strong>17</strong>, Dylan Waters was part of the <strong>GCA</strong> Kenya mission trip group. This was made<br />

possible by the large number of people who donated toward his trip. Dylan, and his grandmother,<br />

sent letters to friends, family and church members. Dylan’s father is a pastor, and both sets<br />

of Dylan’s grandparents are evangelists. Their letters reached many old friends. In total, 45<br />

people contributed (between $10 and $750 each) and Dylan met his goal, making a significant<br />

difference in his life.<br />

Only a freshman at the time, it was a big jump for Dylan’s first mission trip experience to take<br />

place in Africa. Asked why he wanted to go, Dylan says “I love to help people.” He not only<br />

was able to help others, but his trip to Kenya influenced his own life. “I was able to see how<br />

other people live, and learn what their world view is, and how they see God.”<br />

Dylan comes from a mission-minded family. His great-grandfather was a missionary in China. Dylan’s<br />

mother served in Yap, and her father served in the Phillipines. This strong model of service in his ancestry<br />

has helped to feed Dylan’s passion to go into mission work as well. “I’ve thought about it as a career. I’ve<br />

also thought about getting a medical degree so that I can go on short-term mission trips with schools like <strong>GCA</strong><br />

that need medical workers to be part of their team.”<br />

Dylan just returned from the mission trip to Ft. Myers, FL, for hurricane relief, and plans to go to Peru in the spring.<br />

Gifts that may seem small significantly impacted Dylan, and Dylan is impacting the world!<br />

families were enough to purchase a brand new sound system appropriate for outdoor events.<br />

Since then there have been many outdoor concerts that have blessed <strong>GCA</strong> students. Hearts<br />

and lives have been moved to unknown measures. It is moments like those in the<br />

atmosphere of a Friday night vespers, raising your voice in song up to the stars while<br />

you hold on to a friend’s hand, that stay with you and live in your heart forever.<br />

The donations of these families were not enormous -- except in impact. For<br />

every life touched during these concerts there is a ripple effect. Only<br />

in heaven will God reveal how he multiplied the gifts they gave.<br />

“Thank you” is just not adequate for what you offer<br />

students, like me, at <strong>GCA</strong>. It was always my dream<br />

to come to school at <strong>GCA</strong>, but when it came time to<br />

sign up for academy my family could not afford it.<br />

Without you, I would not be here and I would not have<br />

the relationship with God that I have now, because<br />

of the leaders and atmosphere <strong>GCA</strong> provides. I am<br />

indebted to you for that. I will do my best not to let<br />

your generosity, which is something I could never<br />

repay, be in vain. Words are cheap, so the best way I<br />

can show my sincere gratefulness for you, is to make<br />

the most of the opportunity you have given me. I pray<br />

that God will bless you for your giving hearts, and for<br />

all the blessings you bestow upon students like me!<br />

STAFF UPDATES<br />

Pictured left to right: Jeanne Hartwell, Aaron Haldeman, and Jodi Steele<br />

God is multiplying our staff, and we have added three new positions in the past year.<br />

Aaron Haldeman joined us in January to assist Tom Sterndale in maintenance. Aaron maintains staff housing and<br />

all heating, ventilation and air conditioning units. Aaron was born and raised in Mt. Vernon, Ohio where he also attended<br />

academy. He came to <strong>GCA</strong> after twelve years of working at Cohutta Springs Conference Center. Aaron feels the Holy<br />

Spirit guided his decision to join the <strong>GCA</strong> staff. “I have a desire to use the abilities God supplied me with to serve wherever<br />

He needs me.” Aaron’s wife, Jennifer works for the Georgia-Cumberland Conference finance department. They have a<br />

two-year old son, Wilson, who is the light of their life.<br />

Jodi Steele came aboard in February as the marketing and recruiting assistant. Jodi has responsibilities in the Enrollment<br />

Services Office, and does marketing for the school. She grew up in Collegedale, TN and graduated from Southern Adventist<br />

University (SAU) with an undergraduate degree in public relations and master’s degree in school counseling. Prior to <strong>GCA</strong>,<br />

Jodi worked in corporate public relations, as well as for the public school system. Jodi accepted this new position because<br />

she loves the mission and spiritual atmosphere of <strong>GCA</strong>, and says she “finds working with, and mentoring, young people to<br />

be extremely rewarding.” Jodi is married to David Steele, ’93, an architect in the Atlanta area.<br />

Jeanne Hartwell is the newest addition to the <strong>GCA</strong> staff, and started in August. Jeanne has been hired to coordinate<br />

the new <strong>GCA</strong> Scholars program. She will be crafting and facilitating a new program for <strong>GCA</strong> students with GPA’s of<br />

3.7 or higher and/or whose test scores are in the top percentages for the nation. Her goal is to provide opportunities for<br />

experiences that will enhance students’ attractiveness to colleges, information on how to find scholarships, and instruction on<br />

how to be better prepared to enter college on scholastic, social and spiritual levels. She will also coordinate job shadowing<br />

opportunities. Jeanne graduated from SAU with a degree in English. Her past work experience includes teaching college<br />

composition, editor, and pastoring. Most recently she was the Associate Ministerial Director and Family Ministries Director<br />

for the Pennsylvania Conference. Jeanne’s husband, Ray, works for the Georgia-Cumberland Conference as Director of<br />

Trust Services and Stewardship. They have two children, Josh and Abby, and one granddaughter, Skye.<br />

Marty Sutton, assistant principal, recently accepted the position of principal for Madison Campus Elementary School.<br />

“<strong>GCA</strong> has been a major part of my life since 2010, and I will miss it and each of you. <strong>GCA</strong> is a major reason for my boys’<br />

success, and I know that I am leaving [my daughter] Jensen in capable hands because <strong>GCA</strong> is providing the same for her.”<br />

Marty’s transition occurred in October.<br />

HURRICANE<br />

VICTIMS<br />

On Monday, September 18 a group of 39 students and<br />

staff made their way to Florida – but for the first time in<br />

<strong>GCA</strong>’s history, this Florida trip was not for fun at the beaches<br />

or amusements parks. This group was headed to Ft. Myers to<br />

assist those who suffered damage to their homes when Irma<br />

hit their area as a category 3 hurricane on September 10.<br />

They braved the heat, and tolerated the stench of sewage<br />

which had flooded the area, to clear debris from yards, remove<br />

drywall and to pull damaged contents from houses to the street.<br />

They also helped distribute water, food and supplies.<br />

Also a first since the year 2000, <strong>GCA</strong> will not be sending a<br />

group to Appalachia for a mission trip. According to Chaplain<br />

Josh Woods, “With the urgent needs in Florida and Texas so<br />

great this year we felt that is where we should be, but we plan<br />

to return to Appalachia in 2018.”<br />

FUNDS RAISED<br />

BY GOLF TOURNAMENT<br />

Throughout my years in and around the Georgia-<br />

Cumberland Academy campus, it always held a special<br />

place in my heart. Listening to my older brothers share<br />

fond memories of their high school experience, I knew I<br />

wanted to make some of my own. Sadly, my parents went<br />

through a few financial struggles and were not sure if I<br />

could attend. But God knew this was the school for me<br />

and placed many people in my life to help my situation; a<br />

majority of those people are the generous donors of the<br />

worthy student program. Without their help, I would not<br />

be the person I am today. <strong>GCA</strong> has grown me in every<br />

way and allowed endless opportunities for my future. I<br />

could not even begin to express my gratitude towards<br />

this program and what it has done, not only for myself,<br />

but for my family & friends. With the support I have<br />

experienced through this program, I can confidently<br />

say <strong>GCA</strong> is my home.<br />
